“Village Chief, these are the lords of the main family. They’re looking for the assassin. I brought them back to capture the assassin!” Dong Ergou said loudly.

“What assassin?! How can there be an assassin in our village!” the village chief said loudly.

“You’re the village chief?” The leading knight snorted. “It’s not up to you to decide if there’s an assassin or not.

He didn’t take the village chief seriously at all and said coldly, “Dong Ergou, lead the way.”

“Lord, please.” Dong Ergou nodded and bowed. “Peng Jiuyuan’s house isn’t far…’

“Lord!” The village chief took a step forward and said in a deep voice, “Although

Peng Jiuyuan has a different surname, he has lived in our Boundary Bridge Village for decades. His background is clean. It’s impossible for him to be an assassin.”

He looked at the knights and felt a little afraid, but he still gathered his courage.

The knight’s face darkened. “You didn’t understand what I said, did you? Whether there’s an assassin or not, we will see for ourselves. It’s not up to you! Get lost!”

He shouted, and a visible sound wave slammed into the village chief’s chest, sending him flying dozens of feet away.

Gruu!

The village chief opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. He fell to the ground and couldn’t get up for a while.

“Village Chief…” Dong Ergou was shocked.

“Lead the way!” the leader shouted.

Dong Ergou shivered and looked at the village chief apologetically. Then he quickly walked toward Peng Jiuyuan’s house.

“Dong Ergou!” The village chief was anxious.

Boundary Bridge Village was not big to begin with. It was only a few kilometers from one end to the other.

The group of knights quickly arrived at Peng Jiuyuan’s house.

“Is he the person you’re talking about?” The leader raised the spear in his hand and pointed it at Cao Yue, who was standing in the courtyard.

“No.” Dong Ergou shook his head. “He’s a child Peng Jiuyuan picked up more than ten years ago. I’m talking about his uncle. His uncle’s name is Cao Shu. He appeared here not long ago. He was seriously injured at the time…”

“Your surname is Cao?” the leading knight said coldly. “Since he’s an accomplice, take him down first.”

Before he finished speaking, a knight darted out from behind him.

The strange beast soared into the air, flattened the wooden fence, and grabbed Cao Yue.

Cao Yue was just a young man from a mountain village. He had never seen such a scene before and was completely dumbfounded.

“Little Yue!”

With a cry of surprise, a black shadow suddenly rushed over and hugged Cao Yue. He fell to the ground and rolled dozens of feet away, barely dodging the knight’s grab.

The knight’s expression turned ugly when he missed. He stopped the strange beast and slowly turned around.

“Are you an accomplice too?” he said coldly.

“Lord, I don’t know what you mean. We’re all ordinary mountain dwellers…” Peng Jiuyuan said with a terrified expression.

“Ordinary mountain dwellers?” The leading knight drove the strange beast forward and looked down at Peng Jiuyuan. He said slowly, “Where is Cao Shu? Hand him over.”

Peng Jiuyuan was stunned. “I don’t know who Cao Shu is.”

Although he tried his best to hide it, he couldn’t hide it from the knight’s eyes.

When Peng Jiuyuan was young, he had indeed traveled the world. But to put it bluntly, he was a martial artist at the lowest level. The so-called traveling was just taking a look around. The people and things he had experienced were very limited.

In addition, he had lived in Boundary Bridge Village for decades, so there was no need for him to fight with others. How could he learn to be shrewd?

It would have been better if he hadn’t said so. But once he did, the knight became even more suspicious.

The knight sneered. “Dong Ergou, tell me.”

Dong Ergou said loudly, “Peng Jiuyuan, quickly hand over Cao Shu. Don’t let him implicate our entire village! ”

“Dong Ergou, you!” Peng Jiuyuan was shocked and furious. He didn’t expect someone in the village to snitch!

Dong Ergou glanced at the knights, puffed out his chest, and said loudly, “What?! I’m telling the truth! Cao Shu’s origins are unknown, and he’s seriously injured. How can it be so coincidental?!

“He must be the assassin the lords are looking for! Hurry up and hand him over. Then you can atone for your crimes. Otherwise, you’ll only court death!”

Dong Ergou was just a hooligan in the mountains. He didn’t have much power to threaten people.

Peng Jiu was trembling with anger. Cao Yue, who was behind him, was so frightened that he couldn’t say a word.

“Search.” The leading knight’s expression was cold as he pointed his spear forward.

Boom!

The aura of the knight who wanted to capture Cao Yue exploded. The strange beast under him leaped out.

The spear beam was like a dragon as it shattered Peng Jiuyuan’s wooden house.

Peng Jiuyuan’s lips trembled. He protected Cao Yue behind him and stared at Dong Ergou angrily.

The knight turned to look at the leader. “There’s no one inside.”

The leading knight looked at Peng Jiuyuan and said coldly, “Tell me, where is

Cao Shu?”

“Lord, I really don’t know—I’

Before he could finish speaking, the leading knight’s face revealed killing intent.

“You don’t know? Kill the brat behind him and see if he knows,” the leading knight said coldly.

“Yes!” The knight who had shattered Peng Jiuyuan’s house revealed a sinister smile. He raised the spear in his hand and pointed it at Cao Yue.

“Stop!” Peng Jiuyuan was shocked. He turned around and hugged Cao Yue, desperately trying to dodge the knight’s spear.

But Peng Jiuyuan didn’t have much strength to begin with, so how could he dodge the attack?

Just as the spear was about to skewer Peng Jiuyuan and Cao Yue together, the tip of the spear stopped only an inch away from Peng Jiuyuan’s back.

“I’ll give you one last chance,” the leading knight said coldly. “Tell me Cao Shu’s whereabouts. Otherwise, Boundary Bridge Village will be wiped out because of your concealment!”

The leader of the knights instructed, “Go get everyone in this village here.”

The knights behind him seemed to have encountered something fun and smiled in response. Then they drove the mutated beasts under them in all directions.

“Lord…” was scared silly. This wasn’t what he imagined. He had originally thought that he would be able to receive a bounty if he brought people to capture Cao Shu. He didn’t expect these people to attack the people in the village.

The people in the village were all his family.

The leading knight only looked at him coldly, as if he was looking at an ant.

“You have fifteen minutes.. After fifteen minutes, if I can’t find out where Cao

Shu is, I’ll start killing..
